Hitchcock is more 'mysterious' |
When it comes the the unusual, the more literary and the suspenseful, it's Hitchcock for me! The magazine allows for stories with the supernatural - and that tends to keep the reader guessing until the end, as opposed to the typical cop/detective/sleuth tales in EQ. I love the often-moody atmosphere and the scene-building in Hitchcock. |

My father has faithfully subscribed to this for years now and enjoys it much more than EQ... good for plane rides and such- good short stories! |

Not So Much "Mystery" as "Misery" |
|
During the 1960's, when my sister subscribed to AHMM, the stories mirrored the fantastic television show; the stories were primarily mysterious, creepy, and unique, with lots of murders and the twist endings that made the show so great. Now, the majority of the stories in the magazine are plain, uninteresting "detective" stories. I subscribed up until about the early 1980's, but stopped because of the same old boring "cops and robbers" material. I tried to read a recent copy while waiting for my aunt at the beauty shop, but switched to one of the media rags instead when discovered that AHMM hadn't changed. Subscribe only if you are a fan of pure "police" fiction. |

Poor Quality |
|
How bad can it get--ask the folks who put this magazine out every month and charge gullible subscribers $39.95 to read this stuff. It seems they are relying on their old reputation to try to sell subscriptions--but this magazine is a pale shadow of its old self. Today AH Magazine, has the same old mystery stories in each issue with tired out old plots. I will definitely to try to cancel my subscription. |
